Literally just got it LOL will let you know later tonight.
Sort of a hookah without the water filter. I like handling a pipe, but I'll be interested to hear how it goes.
Big ... that's all i got for ya.
I do as well I'm not even a clenched, i prefer holding a pipe, but this will be great for my desk when I'm working or sometimes watching a movie, mindless smoking lol
Wow. Looks like a hookah/tobacco pipe hybrid.
There is nothing that man can’t make or repair.
Yup table pipe a couple companies make them but not many and they aren't easy to find, does use a hookah type hose.
The other main feature of a hookah/nargilah that differentiates it from a pipe is that the shisha (hookah tobacco) isn't directly lit - it is vaporized by placing charcoals above the tobacco, separated by a grate or often foil with holes.
I once watched someone try to light shisha directly. Quite the exercise in futility.
I think the best hooka smoke I had was called Tombec (might have spelled wrong, but it's pronounced Tom Buck) and it's whole dried leaf that is crushed by hand and doused in water (traditionally spit) and rolled into a ball. Much more cigarish then the usual hooka experience. Found that much tastier and more nic heavy then shisha
It’s a 1” chamber, somewhere in the 2” deep region. It’s big.
Pretty cool table pipe you have, there. Interested in how it smokes for you. Congrats!
You'll be able to smoke a tin in a night with that behemoth. Is the hose long enough to sit back on the couch with the pipe on the coffee table? I can see some long lazy days puffing away without hardly moving. You need one of these to accompany it.
For @AJL67 and other guys who've tried a table pipe, can you describe your experience with them? And have you ever shared one with friends? This seems like a great way to share a bowl with friends and help them to experience pipes.
i don't know my cigar buddy was here from Chicago and i had a pipe going and wiped out of the bit and handed it to him and told him to try it. Seemed to work, but i don't know about passing it back and forth like the hose of the table pipe. All of that said I've (many many many times) gone to herfs and sat in on crazy puff puff passes, that went away from a couple years and now people are starting to gravitate toward it again, hard to pass up the offer of smoking some crazy stupid cuban for a bit LOL
It wouldn’t be hard to make a multi hose table pipe much like a multi hose hookah. You would of course have to use hookah type check valves to accommodate multiple hoses
A good way to share pipes with your non pipe friends is to buy a bunch of $8 cobs and give them to your buddies when they come over. Teach them how to load them, light them, sip…. On them. It gives them something to leave with and try again. I keep a few new cobs in my desk at work along with a few baggies of 1Q. It never fails a guy will come around asking me about pipe’s every few months.
I imagine the only fussy bit is de-gunking the inside of the hose every now and again.
It could be done several ways, but all require a made-for-the-task widget.
Also, keep in mind that between the bowl not being in your hand and way chonkier than any normal pipe when you DO touch it, the walls can get hot enough to char/burn before you're aware there's anything happening.
"Honey, what's that smell? Did you get another tobacco? That one's really woody... I kinda like it."

I divorced honey a long time ago and since i was actually a caring, i.e., stupid person all it cost me was everything except my happiness which i got back in spades.
I’ve been reading up on the hoses and caring for them and have ordered a few more to toss in the accessories draw, as the little boys in blue and khaki say “Be prepared”!
